Idris Elba, CEO, Green Door adds: "This is a story that touches all of us. It's about the people who created the soundtracks of our lives in popular music and the pain of their exploitation. It's also about bringing the music industry to account for the injustice inflicted on generations of musical talents who have been deprived of their rightful rewards both financially and in terms of status and respect. At the heart of it is the need to make amends - granting acknowledgement and paying back what is due."
